Bhagavad Gita 4.1
Sanskrit
श्री भगवानुवाच इमं विवस्वते योगं प्रोक्तवानहमव्ययम्। विवस्वान् मनवे प्राह मनुरिक्ष्वाकवेऽब्रवीत्।।4.1।।
Transliteration
śhrī bhagavān uvācha imaṁ vivasvate yogaṁ proktavān aham avyayam vivasvān manave prāha manur ikṣhvākave ’bravīt
Word by Word
Krishna opens the sacred lineage of wisdom by revealing that this yoga—this union of knowledge and action—is eternal and imperishable, passed down from the Sun-god Vivasvan through the royal sages to humanity itself. This is not new philosophy born from human intellect, but divine truth preserved in an unbroken chain of realization across ages.
When you feel lost in life's confusion, remember: the same eternal guidance that sustained kings and sages is available to you now, waiting to be received with an open heart.
